(463 posts)I just want to point out that there is a strange irony between this post and your tag line. We might loose some political battles being "too nice", and "going high, when they go low" might sound cheezy. However, these are our values of empathy, respect, communication, compassion that guide us to political outcomes.
In the process of trying to win elections, if we become the other side, then you will just have two republican parties. Going high is a reference to how we handle insults and corruption. We do not insult back, we do not cheat to win. We meet those tactics with reason, compassion, etc. Even compassion for people who are on the other side. Because we realize, as you have shared, some of the reasons that they are how they are. I can not blame you for your previous actions or opinions because i know your environment shaped you. And, what would blaming you do anyways....
